Abstract
Mobile cardiovascular prevention interventions are still uncommon in Switzerland. Mobile clinics improve access to prevention and enable new diagnoses of hypertension or hypercholesterolemia to be identified in a cost-effective way and has shown benefits in health behaviors such as physical activity, smoking cessation and medication compliance. The Unisanté Bus Santé is a mobile clinic run by nurses that offers screening for cardiovascular risk factors, health advice and, if necessary, referral to medical care. Mobile health initiatives such as the Bus Santé could play a more important role in the Swiss healthcare system, bringing personalized preventive care closer to the population.
